Image
If you so choose, each day can be filled with even more joy than the one before. If you so choose, even the most seemingly random events can work in your favor.
Ralph Marston
Image
Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. Truly appreciate those around you, and you'll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life, and you'll find that you have more of it.
Ralph Marston
Image
What you hold in your heart, you will see in your world.
Ralph Marston
Image
Life is not always easy. And that is a major reason why it is so precious. Many of life's best rewards are possible only because you must work your way through difficult challenges to get to them. If everything in life were easy, there would be no opportunity for real fulfillment.
Ralph Marston
Image
Be someone who lives with joy, with purpose, as your own light brightly shines. Be, in every moment, the special someone you are truly meant to be.
Ralph Marston
Image
One of the greatest motivators is desire. If the desire is strong enough you will do whatever it takes to achieve. Just connect your actions with your true desires.
Ralph Marston
Image
If you focus on the obstacles, then you give them more power.
Ralph Marston
Image
Lasting achievement, whatever the endeavor, comes from a commitment to excellence every step of the way.
Ralph Marston
Image
The best way to handle good fortune is to do something positive and useful with it. The best way to handle misfortune is exactly the same.
Ralph Marston
Image
Achievement does not require extraordinary ability. Achievement comes from ordinary abilities applied with extraordinary persistence.
Ralph Marston
Image
Instead of jumping at the chance to be offended, choose to be amused. Rather than filling your thoughts with resentment, fill your heart with forgiveness.
Ralph Marston
Image
Feelings come and feelings go. There is no need to fear them and no need to crave them. Be open to your feelings and experience them while they are here. Then be open to the feelings that will come next. Your feelings are a part of your experience. Yet no mere feeling, however intense it may seem, is your permanent reality.
Ralph Marston
Image
Truly appreciate life, and you'll find that you have more of it. [at least it will feel like it!]
Ralph Marston
Image
You can choose instead to live in the enriching, empowering light of your own highest visions. You can always choose to grow, to achieve, and to fulfill by immersing your awareness in life's ever-present goodness.
Ralph Marston
Image
Live what you love, and love what you live. Anything less is a painful and frustrating waste of your precious time.
Ralph Marston
Image
You cannot expect to get the effect when you neglect to create the cause.
Ralph Marston
Image
Every moment spent in negativity is paid for with something truly priceless. That something is life.
Ralph Marston
Image
There's nothing that says you have to succeed in the same way as someone else. In fact, there's nothing that says you must define success in the same way as someone else.
Ralph Marston
Image
Carrying a grudge is difficult work that brings nothing of value. Forgive, and be free.
Ralph Marston
Image
If you're ninety-five percent of the way to outstanding success, doesn't it make sense to go the additional five percent of the way? ... A marathon which takes hours to run, can be won or lost by a matter of seconds.
Ralph Marston
